For those of you who are blowing up X2s, I have a couple of questions: 1) Was it eyelet or trunnion mount? (the bleed screw design appears to be different?) 2) Was it the same unit each time or a different one? 3) What were your HSC, LSC and climb switch settings? 4) I assume this affects only the damper and not the spring?
Cheers A nervous 2021 X2 owner
1) Trunnion mount
2) It was my first X2 and it's from 2022, so it wasn't that old.
3) Don't remember it anymore but I was only off a few clicks of the recommended settings
Mine came squelchy out of the box. Then got squelchy again 5 months later. Now I got it back from warranty again and I think they screwed something up because it feels like ass and my old settings are like a pogo stick. I was able to get it usable after cranking up the compression and rebound but if I weighed more I'd be screwed.
DPX2 on a different bike also went squelchy right away. Super Deluxe has been perfect for about 2 years.
Give me the new SD with hydraulic bottom out any day over another Fox rear shock.
